Haircut by a 3 year old!

Ki'Aja has been asking to have hair like Mommy, Short. I kept thinking I love her hair and the natural highlights, how thick it is etc. But she decided for us, she wanted her hair short and she was going to make it short.
Kevin let me take a nap while he played with the kids. Ki'Aja decided she would find some scissors and sneak off into the living room and chop, chop, chop. Kevin came in 45 minutes later, tapped me on the shoulder to wake me up and said, " We have a small problem" then he showed me a handful of hair, blond beautiful hair. I thought he was kidding. Then he brought Aja in and I could not believe it. I cried and sobbed and cried. I know people think I am so much of an over reactor, but I love my girls' hair. Read the previous post about Ku'uipo and her 8 inch cut. Then you will see. Anyways, I kept thinking of the baby coming and the wonderful family pictures that will be taken and all. I could not see her hair being "fixed" at all. I called a wonderful friend and asked her to come to save the day, and that she did. Love you Stace.
She was not sad at all. She was actually quite happy to have short hair!
I have to say that she can cut at a pretty good angle.

Right before the haircut given by the lifesaver Stacie Hanson. She was so wonderful to come by at 9:30PM to save my sanity and cut Aja's hair so I could sleep.


She was very good at chopping ALL her hair, every area had pieces chopped here and there. The worst part is on her left side where she cut a chunk of it up above her ear. I was hoping to find a way to save the length but that was impossible.
I will post pictures of the fix next. They would not download. Hopefully tomorrow you can see the all new Aja.

5 1/2 months pregnant!


I don't know what happened but I suddenly "popped" out! I kept waiting to show and here I am with baby #5!
Hahaha....

Haha Just kidding. My mom said it doesn't look like I have a baby in there so she made me stuff my shirt with a blanket. Hence, the first picture. This is the real me. I am starting to show. I even wore a maternity type shirt to try and look more pregnant. I cannot wait until I have the real belly I know everyone thinks oh you are so lucky, but really I want to show and waddle and all since this is my last baby I will be birthing. I know this might be news to a lot of people. Kev and I know we want more kids but we also know that I am not the vessel for them to get here. It really is hard on everyone, but each baby is such a blessing and we know they are meant to be here. Our prayers are answered and we know we are done or at least I am done having them.

I had a very eventful week. It is a long story, but I will post the jist of it. I had an appointment on Wednesday for Keo and his clavicle to see if he needed surgery....He does not! Yea! Then we had some free time after we went to lunch with my Dad so I went to the store. Here I had a bleeding episode that scared me pretty bad. I made it to the hospital where they did an ultrasound and several other tests. All the while sweet Ke'Lao was with me. Luckily the nurses took him out when appropriate. Dr. Draper admitted me for observation. It was just me and Keo. I was all stressed how I would get him home since Kevin was at work and my mom had back surgery, Brittnie was at work etc. Cami was visiting her grand baby Rielly and was just down the hall. I got ahold of her and she came right over and took Ke'Lao home to my grandma. She saved me and Keo for that matter. Thanks Cam!


Anyways, Kevin was able to get off work and come up to the hospital where we spent 2 lovely days. Turns out the doc thinks I had another possible placenta abruption, very small, but I lost quite a bit of blood. He waited until I was no longer bleeding and my hematocrit started to rise. I am home now taking it easy which is not fun, but I do not want to bleed like that again, so I will be careful. Plus I have Hitler family members who make sure I am careful! This pregnancy is a trial, but this baby is a true blessing. I cannot wait to have the newborn home safe with the family. I want to thank everyone for helping and caring! I love you all and I am so blessed to have you in my life. I also need Kevin to know that as much as he hates the hospital he made it not as boring for me and he even went searching for me some peanut M&M's while I was there. I love you babe!

Picture Tagged by Ku'uipo.


The tag is supposed to be the 6th picture in the 6th folder. Here is what I got--Sweet baby Ki'Aja at 2 months old. We put her in the flowers at Murray Park. I remember this day so well. She was so cute and perfect. Oh I cannot wait for another baby to take pictures of and put in a flower bed-LOL.
